    never liked betting futures...horse wakes up with the most minor problem and they scratch these days...the horses are worth too much in the long run...meanwhile your futures bet is a loss...plus since i prefer exotics im sure you can get a nice healthy exacta raceday...but hey if you like it go for it.

    Yeah , futures are risky as you can get nothing for your money if the horse does not run. But I got to figure Gemologist goes off around 4/ or 5/1 Derby day. So if you really like the horse it may be worth a shot.

    realize many things can go wrong, but he will NOT go 8-1 on race day

    watch the wood race on drf, this horse is a fighter

    will make HUGE place bet on him on the day

    He could easily be 8-1 on Derby day
    Horses can get hurt between now and the Derby so the future is a bad bet
    Bet him to win in the Derby if you like him, it is win or nothing for this type of horse in the Derby (usually nothing)

    Think its close.Unless Hansen throws a dud in the Blue Grass he is going to take money plus Union Rags is going to take money.Then you still have the Arkansas Derby winner who will be fresh in peoples minds.Creative Cause,I'll Have Another,Take Charge Indy,Alpha...No one really separated themselves so its going to be a lukewarm favorite around 4-1/9-2 if not higher and then a bunch between 6-1 to 12-1.Given Pletcher's history of getting horses to the derby sound I'd say its a risky prop.

    He figures to be around 6/1 I think on Derby day unless one of the other three favorites doesn't run so risking a future bet on him at 8/1 really isn't a good bet since we all know how fragile these Horse's are.

    Well the Arkansas Derby winner will be more than fresh in peoples minds now.Bodemeister ran the biggest race by a 3 year old by a looooooooooong way.Of course in the derby he and Hansen are going to hook up on the lead but if Bode improves off yesterday he is going to win by a pole.

    i have a few Derby Future tickets.
    8/22 exacta box (cant even remember who #8 and #22 are)
    and an exacta: union rags over Hansen, Gemologist and "all other 3 y/o's"
    $3 to win on Union Rags too....big spender that i am

    last year i came up short on all my derby wagers but watched my acct increase by a $100+ due to a Future Pool wager that i played months before. couldnt help but try it again this year....its only $, right?

    I wonder if Bodemeister will bounce in the Derby off that Arkansas Derby performance. He has only 3 weeks to rest. Plus Hansen will test him on the front end. Probably look elsewhere.
